Medicated Weight Loss Clinic in Wishaw | McMinns Pharmacy, Lanarkshire

Welcome to McMinns Pharmacy’s  Lanarkshire Weight Loss Clinic, proudly serving Wishaw, Coltness, Newmains, and the wider North Lanarkshire area. If you’re struggling to lose weight with diet and exercise alone, our pharmacist-led weight loss service offers safe, effective, and medically proven treatments - including GLP-1 weight loss injections like Mounjaro®, Wegovy®, and Saxenda®.

💊 Why Choose Medicated Weight Loss?

Medicated weight loss programmes offer powerful tools for those with a BMI over 27, especially if you’re living with obesity, PCOS, type 2 diabetes, or metabolic resistance.

Our treatments help:

  • Control hunger and reduce appetite

  • Increase feelings of fullness

  • Improve blood sugar and insulin sensitivity

  • Support long-term fat loss and weight maintenance

  • Break the cycle of yo-yo dieting

At McMinns Pharmacy (Wishaw), our team offers tailored plans based on your needs, health background, and personal goals - all with professional supervision and ongoing support.

🌟 Now Offering Mounjaro® (Tirzepatide)

We are excited to offer Mounjaro®, a new generation GLP-1/GIP receptor agonist that’s shown exceptional weight loss results in clinical studies. It works differently from other injections like Saxenda® and Wegovy® by targeting two key hunger-regulating hormones, helping patients lose more weight, more effectively.

Available now at McMinns Pharmacy - Private consultations required.

💊 Our Weight Loss Medication Options

We prescribe several clinically approved weight loss treatments, including:

  • Mounjaro® (tirzepatide) – Dual-action GLP-1/GIP weekly injection for enhanced fat loss

  • Wegovy® (semaglutide) – GLP-1 receptor agonist supporting appetite control

  • Saxenda® (liraglutide) – Daily GLP-1 injection for moderate weight loss support

  • Orlistat (Alli®) – Capsule that blocks fat absorption

  • Mysimba® – Appetite suppressant affecting hunger centres in the brain

Each option is part of a medically monitored weight management programme, designed around your goals, lifestyle, and medical history.

🧬 GLP-1 Weight Loss Explained

GLP-1 medications like Mounjaro, Wegovy, and Saxenda work by mimicking a natural hormone in your body that controls appetite and fullness. These weekly or daily injections help reduce food intake, improve blood sugar, and promote long-term fat burning - especially when combined with a balanced diet and physical activity.

Mounjaro (tirzepatide) is a dual GIP and GLP-1 agonist, offering even greater weight loss potential for people who haven’t had success with traditional options.
